Description:
The Hemingway Special is linked to Havanas El Floridita bar and Ernest Hemingways fondness for Daiquiris. Unlike the classic Daiquiri, this version uses grapefruit and maraschino. The cocktail is dry, citrusy, and lightly bitter. Maraschino adds subtle sweetness and a stone-fruit aroma without turning the drink into a sweet fruit cocktail.
